December's Unemployment Snapshot

Indiana's unemployment rate (not seasonally adjusted) has remained
at 4.7 for many months now and continues to be significantly lower than the
national rate each month. Within Indiana, 37 counties experienced rates
of unemployment higher than the state, particularly Orange (8.8), Fulton
(8.4), Miami (8.4) and Fayette (8.0). Orange County's long history
of high unemployment might change if the opportunity for gambling in that
county passes the legislature this session.
